Dialogue[edit]

Upon entering the Vateshran Hollows on your own, you'll find him along the way: "Beyond this pass you'll encounter unimaginable creatures. Things no Man nor Mer should ever lay eyes upon.
If you believe yourself strong enough to face them, feel free to enter. Our Rites Matron can tell you all you need to know."

Who is the Rites Matron?
"The Rites Matron oversees every entrant into the Vateshran's Rites, providing them instruction and ensuring we follow our clan's oldest traditions. She held this honor long before I was born, and I suspect she will continue long after I fall."

Quest-Related Events[edit]

You must speak with him to end the quest.

"Ah, you showed. When I received Angair's message, I thought for sure he jested. A stranger from beyond the Reach would never agree to partake in the Vateshran's Rites.
And yet, here you stand. Are you certain you want to do this?"
Yes, I came to accept the challenge.
"Usually Reachfolk train their entire lives for this day. They enter knowing full well that it may mean their death. If you choose to turn back now, you shall lose your pride but keep your life.
So, once more, I ask. Are you ready?"

Or

"Our people prepare their entire lives for this day. If they survive, they become full members of the clan. Failure, of course, means death.
Are you certain of your desire to take the Vateshran's Rites?"
I am. Tell me what to do.
"Twice you affirm to me your commitment to the Rites. So it shall be. The path lies before you. Through here you will meet our Rites Matron. Speak with her to begin the challenge.
I wish you luck. Perhaps you will emerge to honor the Reach."

After turning in the quest, you can ask him a few questions.

"By even agreeing to perform the Vateshran's Rites, you show more courage than other outsiders. The Reach crawls with those who don't belong here these days. But only you show us this respect.
Let's hope you survive."
Who is the Rites Matron?
"The Rites Matron oversees every entrant into the Vateshran's Rites, providing them instruction and ensuring we follow our clan's oldest traditions. She held this honor long before I was born, and I suspect she will continue long after I fall."

After you complete the daily quest, you can return to Caddgarn and see his reaction.

"You emerge! And with your skin and teeth intact. I knew from the moment you approached—this one has promise.
I look forward to seeing the shock on Angair's face when I tell him you passed."
